Fig. 4. A typical experiment for the limpet Cellana tramoserica exposed to a simulated wave force. The adherence force (FAdherence) of the foot was consistently greater than the lift force (FLift). The force difference between the adherence and lift force was generated by the action of shell clamping by the limpet (FClamping) (hatched area).
